Changes

Changes From the Manga

In the manga Seiya and Usagi never had a date.
Sailor Iron Mouse was killed by Sailor Star Healer.

Dub Changes

In the Mexican dub, the name of the movie Minako invites Taiki to watch with was changed to "El amor de los adultos es aventurero y apasionado" (Adult's love is adventurous and passionate), which sounds more of a romantic movie. The original japanese name was "Adults' Love XX", which seems to be an adults movie.
Ami has a few lines after Usagi was asked for a date, but in the Mexican dub it was omitted.
Although in the Mexican dub that scene wasn't omitted nor the dialogue changed, in Argentina and other Latin american countries where the Mexican dub was aired, the scene where Seiya seems to want a physical relationship with Usagi was cut completely.

Trivia
